one thing i would like to say about your portfolio -- as a person that gets a lot
make it clear what you do
as the owner of a design studio i hire people for what they can do best -- meaning -- theres an entire profession that is "photography"
so if i need a photographer -- i hire a photographer
if i need a copywriter -- i hire a copywriter
if i need a flash guru -- i hire a flash guru
if i need an illustrator -- i hire an illustrator (i have 2 or 3 that i keep around -- since they all have different sytles
etc, etc, etc
all of these things are "professions" -- make sure you represent what you do -- are u a web designer and thats what you are looking for? great!...then dont put illustration or photography or copy writing in your portfolio -- thats not what you do
if you are "interested" in those things -- sweet -- put them somewhere else...
